Final Girl On Sale

$0.99 for a limited time

Hey y’all, just dropping a quick note to let you all of y’all know that my book, FINAL GIRL: AND OTHER ESSAYS ON GRIEF, TRAUMA, AND MENTAL ILLNESS is on sale. From today (12/24) to Jan. 1st, the ebook is only $0.99.

Here’s the blurb:

From the INDIE-Gold-award-winning author of Sexism Ed comes a "haunting, mesmerizing, and darkly funny" memoir about mental illness, poverty, and inner strength.

When Kelly J. Baker was two years old, her mother fled Baker's abusive father. A custody arrangement left Baker behind, the new target of his violence. But against all odds, she escaped from the trailer park to college and graduate school. But the pain of her childhood remained, buried deep.

Final Girl is the story of Baker's journey from poverty to Ph.D., from trauma to therapy, with all of the bumps along the way. Whether talking about parenthood, finding a therapist, moving back home to her small town, or wrestling with the algae in an old swimming pool, Final Girl reckons with what it takes to build a home in a place where you never thought you'd find home again.

If you enjoyed Tara Westover's Educated and Jeannette Walls's The Glass Castle, you will love Final Girl.

"A haunting, mesmerizing, and darkly funny book." -Katie Rose Guest Pryal, IPPY-Gold-winning author of Life of the Mind Interrupted

Please consider grabbing a copy or gifting one (if you are into the holiday season) if you want to read a grimly funny memoir about living with grief, mental illness, and trauma.
